Bar Bukowski

Writer Charles Bukowski once said 'there is always a reason to drink', and nowhere does this ring more true than at his namesake bar in Amsterdam Oost.

Breakfast, lunch and drinks in Oost

Located on the corner of Oosterpark, this lively hotspot in Amsterdam Oost serves up a great selection of cocktails and drinks, as well as an all day food menu that covers everything from breakfast to late night munchies. Nods to the bar's literary namesake are scattered here and there; from the typewriter-inspired light installation above the bar to Bukowski's quotes (mainly about booze and women) weaved throughout the menu.
